Sons of Sparta reminded me of how a lot of Sony-owned IP games on PSP and PS Vita were when compared to their home console entries, in that they were usually lesser. If Sony still had a handheld I could totally see that game having come out on there rather than a home console. It's a shame really because I always thought God of War was the best IP Sony had to do a metroidvania style game with, especially as it would have been a way to go back to the older hack and slash style of gameplay that the series naturally moved away from due to the story it told after GoW 3. It can't make sense for the current version of Kratos to mimic the way he fought in the OG trilogy so that was what I think should've been a slam dunk solution.
